Description
Neuropeptide S (1-10) (human) is a decapeptide with the sequence SFRNGVGTGM. It is derived from the precursor protein neuropeptide S (NPS) and is known to modulate various physiological functions, including arousal, anxiety, and food intake. The peptide acts through the neuropeptide S receptor (NPSR), a G protein-coupled receptor, which is widely expressed in the central nervous system. The NPS-NPSR system has been implicated in regulating behavioral responses to stress and in modulating wakefulness.
Structurally, Neuropeptide S (1-10) (human) features a conserved N-terminal sequence that is critical for receptor binding and activation. The peptide's biological activity is highly dependent on its primary structure, particularly the N-terminal residues, which are essential for its agonist properties. Studies have shown that modifications to the N-terminal region can significantly alter its receptor affinity and functional efficacy.

About TFA salt
Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.
Impact on Net Weight: The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.
Solubility: TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.
In Biological Assays: For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
